Church Charities
Redland Park supports a local and an international charity each year, as well as supporting Christian Aid through collections and a church fair. Here are the church charities for 2022-2024:
OVERSEAS - THE VINE TRUST: Vine Trust is an international development charity which enables volunteers to provide medical, home-building and care support to communities living in severe poverty in Tanzania and Peru. LOCAL - NORTH BRISTOL AND SOUTH GLOS FOOD BANK We don’t think anyone in our community should have to face going hungry. That’s why we provide three days’ nutritionally balanced emergency food and support to local people who are referred to us in crisis. We are part of a nationwide network of foodbanks, supported by The Trussell Trust, working to combat poverty and hunger across the UK. FAIRTRADE Redland Park also regularly supports fair trade and environmentally friendly goods with a stall on Sunday mornings selling items from developing countries and also those made in sustainable and environmentally friendly ways, especially those which do not use plastic. We also support Christian Aid with a Fair each May followed by Big Brekkie, and a donation envelope delivery in the local area, together with other occasional collections, particularly following a world crisis. Redland Park regularly runs fund raising events for the charities they support. These include concerts, fairs, cake sales, quizzes and sponsored activities. |
